Fully out of U.S. tech stocks for now. Kept a few biotech and consumer names that are still trading at relatively low levels to sit on as longer term setups, names like ZTS and LULU. Yesterday, followed the plan and trimmed semis premarket. After seeing semis sell off hard at the open, everything was closed and rotated into TSLA and a few software names. TSLA and the software names also moved higher. Just now, SPX h…

ERR is average views per post over the last 30 days divided by subscribers, the definition TGStat uses, so this figure is comparable with the one you will see elsewhere. It falls structurally as a channel grows: a high ERR on a small channel and a low one on a large channel describe reach mathematics, not quality. We publish the figure and the sample it came from and pass no verdict on it.
ER is defined industry-wide as (forwards + reactions + comments) ÷ views— note the denominator is views, not subscribers. Telegram’s public web preview carries views and reactions but not forward or comment counts, so the reaction rate above is the reactions term only and is therefore a floor: the true ER for this channel is higher by an amount we have not measured and will not estimate.

Views are a single reading per post, taken at the time above. A post published in the last day or two is still accumulating views, which pulls the 30-day average down slightly. That is a property of the standard definition rather than a fault in it, so we keep the definition rather than “correcting” the number into something nobody can reproduce.
Precision. Telegram publishes view counts on its public widget in short form — 8.12K, 3.7M — so any reading at or above 1,000 reaches us rounded to three significant figures, and only counts below 1,000 are exact. Averages and rates derived from them are shown to the same precision rather than to the unit: a figure like 3,701,250 would assert digits nobody measured.
Reaction counts are published per emoji and rounded the same way, so a total below 1,000 is exact and a larger one is a sum that may carry a rounded component from each emoji above 1,000. Because it is a sum, it does not look rounded — read a large reaction total as three significant figures per contributing emoji rather than as the figure it prints.

Big move higher. The 980 target for MU and 260 target for MRVL mentioned above were based on large bullish options trades seen late in the session two days ago. QQQ also did in fact bottom around 709. Too easy. The CPO names in the portfolio, such as LITE, are absolutely ripping. Those who were too afraid to buy semiconductors at the highs and are still buying crypto and gold really are idiots. With NVIDIA’s earnings…
QQQ has 709 as the intraday floor for now. If it dips again tomorrow, add more and bet directly on Nvidia earnings being a positive catalyst for semis and CPO. And MRVL, almost forgot to mention it. It could run toward 260 into earnings. Saw several large options trades yesterday. I wasn’t in front of the computer at the open, so I missed that NQ hit the Call Wall and then pulled back. QQQ also saw heavy dark pool a…
Unfortunately, every time $TRUMP starts to move higher, BTC gets hit with another downside wick, which has held TRUMP back from rallying much further. At the open, I’m planning to buy hardware and tech stocks, including $MU, $INTC, $BE, $NBIS, and $GLW. If you want a more conservative approach, $QQQ is also a good option. For now, it looks like the temporary negative catalysts have largely been priced in. $NVDA earn…
That flash crash definitely caught me off guard, but fortunately price still hasn’t reached my cost basis. Bull markets come with plenty of flash crashes. The dump isn’t the problem. Just added to the positions and picked up $HYPE and $ZEC as well. The slow bleed is what hurts. Cost basis still hasn’t been reached. After a violent wick and selloff, fewer profitable holders are left in the market, clearing the way fo…
Twitter is full of talk that Trump could launch a new coin. What if $TRUMP runs another 5x from here?This crypto bull market started with Trump’s comments, and the meme coin bull market may start with $TRUMP. $TRUMP has had a very clean washout. Despite already being up 2x from the bottom, the circulating price still looks very cheap. I think it should be able to run above $5. Great memes are born in bull markets. …
This is the article covering yesterday’s market. While writing it, I realized that my overall workflow is still not fully optimized, so I wasn’t able to include everything. There were quite a few things I left out, including today’s pre-market thesis. It takes up too much time, so going forward, I think the daily market recap needs to be much more concise overall. I’ll use separate articles to go into more detail on…
Starting tomorrow, I will begin writing on Substack to document my trades and market views. Of course, the content will be completely free. It will mainly include my premarket hypotheses and post market reviews for ES and NQ, gamma and dark pool activity for individual stocks, unusual options activity, broader market sector rotation, congressional trading activity, corporate insider transactions, and the major news o…
In July, I managed to avoid the selloff. Not losing money is a win in itself. I did not post some of my trades afterward because I was traveling. I only shared in a few group chats that I had turned bullish on cloud infrastructure companies, software stocks, and gold, and called for buying the dip. The one thing I regret is selling PLTR and MSFT too early. It reminded me that when the positioning is good, it is still…
Ahead of today's Alphabet earnings, the market is clearly positioning defensively. Both Alphabet and semiconductor storage names have sold off. My base case is that Alphabet's CapEx will at least be maintained and is more likely to be raised. If CapEx is only maintained instead of increased, the market will probably view that as a negative. Alphabet is not going to leave the AI race early. As long as the hyperscalers…
ZEC also climbed as high as 580 during this period and held up much better than most other cryptocurrencies, allowing me to lock in a small profit before exiting my position for now. I think Bitcoin's rebound to 67K to 70K is probably close to its limit for this leg. My base case is another pullback first, followed by one more rebound with 70K likely being the highest it can reach
Over the past few weeks, being heavily overweight Microsoft $MSFT helped me avoid the sharp selloff in storage stocks and still come away with a small gain. I've now sold my Microsoft position and will wait until both Alphabet and Microsoft report earnings before making the next move. The market is also positioning defensively ahead of earnings. Back to enjoying the trip for now
Showing the 12 most recent of 28 posts we hold for @au_call. View and reaction counts are the latest single reading for each post, not a live figure, and a recent post is still accumulating both. A view count marked ≈ was rounded by Telegram before we ever saw it — t.me prints views in full below 1,000 and to three significant figures above, so ≈1,200,000 means somewhere between 1,150,000 and 1,249,999. Unmarked counts are exact. Text is reproduced from the public post preview and truncated for length.
